I am trying to obtain supported format (I have already installed
gdal used by QGIS, and do not want to have problems later if we
change the gdal's installation).

never tried that. better try to get the rasters in a supported
format or
<br>
use a Windows machine (I think with advanced install you can add
ECW
<br>
support, but I have only Linux over here)

I cannot open ECW files in QGIS 3.22. My operating system is

instructions are obsolate.
<br>

Please, could you help me with this problem give me some
